Android App and AVD rotating

Question

I`m new in programming Android and have a few beginner problems. I want to rotate my app, when I rotate the device.

How can I programm that my App do this?

And I want to test it with the AVD, but in my AVD, I can not rotate the browser. My AVD has a acclerometer, so what must I do that my own app and the browser rotate?

---

I can rotate the emulator. But the applications in the emulator do not rotate.I want to rotate my own application. I dont know the sourcecode. This was my first question. my second one, is why no application like the browser in the AVD rotate when I rotate the AVD.

Thanks for your help.

Answer 1

To rotate emulator press Ctrl+F11. Your app should rotate without adding any code.

Answer 2

I didn't fully understand what you meant in your question, please be more specific.

But if you mean to rotate the AVD you can press KEYPAD_9, Ctrl-F12, KEYPAD_7 or Ctrl-F11 (for the other virtual keys see Android Emulator )
